How do you graph an equation in function form?
I would set up a table of values and calculate several of the values of the variables (I would try to calculate the "interesting" values setting one to zero and calculating the other(s), guessing at a maximum or minimum value etc. Then I would plot the values on graph paper.
Why is it not possible for any part of the distance-time graph of a body to be a straight-line segment parallel to the distance axis?
BecAuse that would mean it is going an infinite speed. The slope of a distance time graph is the objects velocity or speed. If there is a line parallel to the distance axis, there is a vertical line. The slope of a vertical line is infinite. It is not possible to go an infinite speed.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
constant speed
Which values would a scientist NOT use a graph to compare?
A graph would not be useful to illustrate the times between eclipses, or the comparative shapes of airfoils. Graphs only illustrate numerical information in comparison with other similar values.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate what?
The straight horizontal line on the graph says: "Whatever time you look at, the speed is always the same". This is the graph of an object moving with constant speed.
What would be the shape of a speed - time graph of a body?
If speed changes, then the speed/time graph has up/down curves in it.
What would be the shape of a speed time graph of a body moving with variable speed?
If a body is moving with variable speed, then the only thing you can say aboutits speed/time graph is that the graph is not a straight, horizontal line.
How speed of zero would appear on a graph?
-- If the graph displays speed against time, then speed of zero is indicated wherever the graph-line touches the x-axis. -- If the graph displays distance against time, then speed of zero is indicated wherever the graph-line is horizontal. -- If the graph displays acceleration (magnitude) against time, then the graph can tell you when speed is increasing or decreasing, but it doesn't show what the actual speed is.

What does constant speed appear as on a V-t graph?
On a graph of velocity and time, a constant speed would appear as a straight horizontal line.
A constant speed has a slope of zero on a graph because no acceleration is taking place?
That would be true, in the case of a graph of speed vs time.
What are the keypoints for the graph of cosine?
For a general cosine graph, they would be the maximum and minimum values, and the values of the independent variable at which these are attained.Note that the graph of y = cos(x)+2 is never equal to zero, so there may not be any roots.

What is the name of the line that would show constant speed on a V-T graph?
On a V-t graph, constant speed is shown as a horizontal line.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
constant speed
What kind of graph shows an object's speed?
Speed = distance / time A line graph with distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis could be used to determine speed. The speed would equal the slope of the line. Alternatively, a line graph with distance/time on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis would show speed. The acceleration would equal the slope of the line.

A graph would not be useful to illustrate the times between eclipses, or the comparative shapes of airfoils. Graphs only illustrate numerical information in comparison with other similar values.
